Shanghai Old & New

Shanghai has a population of 23 M plus and offers an interesting mix of old and new.  It is probably mainland China's most modern city.

 

To the left is the skyline of Pudong with the very modern looking Oriental Pearle TV & Radio Tower which was completed in 1994.  The tower stands 468 m (1,535 ft).

The Old City in Huangpu makes for an interesting day of exploration.  As you wander through it's streets you'll discover much of the city's historical structures.  Great effort has been made to preserve much of the original wooden architecture and provides a beautiful glimpse into the city's past.
